Create initial release of csi-driver-iscsi

[saad-ali]

1. Do some manual testing to ensure the driver works as intended.
2. Create a release-0.1 branch for kubernetes-csi/csi-driver-iscsi
3. Cut an official release v0.1.0 release of this driver from the new branch.
4. Push a csi-driver-iscsi:v0.1.0 container (either to quay or gcr.io whatever the Kubernetes CSI team decides)

Before we do that, we should also:

• Use release-tools for common process
• Remove dependency on csi-lib-common

I was about to suggest the same as @msau42.

One comment about branching: it is not necessary to start such a branch right away. The initial release can also be done from the master branch and then (if necessary) a maintenance branch can be created later.

Sure. As long as we cut a branch before the next release. I want to make sure that we never end up with a situation where an older release does not have a branch that we can go back to and make patch fixes.

I just don't understand what you are worried about here. What would prevent creating that branch at a later time, when it is needed?

We can have v1.1.0, v1.2.0, v1.3.0 all tagged on master, with no branches. When we decide that we need a v1.1.1 with a certain bug fix from master, we create a release-1.1 branch off v1.1.0 and backport that fix. Then v1.1.1 is tagged on that branch.

We now have v0.1.0 here https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-driver-iscsi/releases/tag/v0.1.0 , once we have e2e in place we will be releasing v1.0.0

[andyzhangx]

v1.0.0 is for GA release, once we have e2e test, we could claim it's beta release with v0.2.0
